Rabat – The Ethics Committee of the Moroccan Royal Football Federation (FRMF) announced on Friday suspending Mohamed Ahl El Kouri, President of the Raja Dakhla Women’s Football Club, and Jamal Tefraoui, Coach of the Atlas Taliouine Club.
In a statement, FRMF said that Mohamed Ahl El Kouri has been suspended from engaging in all football-related activities for two years and fined MAD 20,000 ($2,000) for forging a termination contract with a player and blackmailing her.
Likewise, the committee suspended Jamal Tefraoui from all football-related activities for two years and fined him 20,000 dirhams for blackmailing some of his team’s players.
The decisions were made following a meeting of the Ethics Committee on Thursday.
The news comes as the FRMF is undergoing a massive restructuring aiming to boost national football. On July 9, Fouzi Lekjaa, FRMF President, unveiled an ambitious plan.
Lekjaa affirmed that the development blueprint draws profound inspiration from royal directives on sports practices, reflecting football’s pivotal role in societal integration, particularly among youth.
The strategy outlines essential components, such as broadening grassroots involvement and enhancing sports infrastructure across the country to meet international standards established by continental and global football authorities.
It also incorporates holistic measures designed to accomplish these goals, including intensive training programs, modernization of infrastructure, enhancements in governance, elevation of national team standards, and strengthening international recognition.
